Our Story

DiabeticShoesDirect.com was founded in 2014 by Heather Guttersohn. She comes from a family of health care professionals and noticed a large void in the health care system with regards to diabetes education and prevention, which is shocking given that 50% of Americans show symptoms of the disease. She set out with the goal of preventing complications such as damaged blood cells, nerve damage, diabetic ulcers, and ultimately amputations by providing educational resources and wide selection of high quality products.

Our store is BBB Accredited and is a family run business specializing in orthopedic footwear and hard to fit sizes with the goal of helping to educate customers on how to maintain their health with properly fitting footwear. We aim to provide an outstanding selection of diabetic, orthopedic and orthotic friendly footwear, as well as hard to fit sizes at the very best prices possible.

More than 26 million Americans are affected by diabetes. Our goal is to provide outstanding value, great customer service and useful resources to those impacted by this disease.

Please take advantage of our resource center which provides valuable information on various foot conditions and explains how diabetic shoes can improve these conditions. We have also included a list of additional websites that provide an abundance of facts on diabetes.
